Well as you can see I'm still behind. College is taking up a lot of my time
these days :) This post is in regards to 2 that I have found the time to
read.
My 2 youngest have also been on WIC and had hematocrit levels done every six
months. Their levels were always nice a high too. Chalk another one up for
breastfeeding!!
As for the mom with flatulence.... I found that onions... yes onions... can be
horrendous in causing foul smelling gas. I've even gone so far as to ask
mothers who call me with gassy babies, if they are eating a lot of onions.
Many of them are and when I suggest they cut back and follow-up with them, it
seems to have helped.
I responded to the poster of that message personally, but I really feel this
could be of help to the masses.
